About the store
I have been in education for 15 years. As a teacher, I had the pleasure of teaching at-risk students, first grade, fifth grade, and 6th grade. Currently, I am a Curriculum Coordinator for elementary ELA and Science. I love what I do!
Through the past 4 years I have also worked with the state to write state assessments, passages, unwrap standards, and create sample stems for the standards.

Teaching style
My teaching style was always collaborative and included many cooperative learning strategies. I loved the gradual release process, and giving students ownership in their learning. I loved seeing them work collaboratively with their partner or groups and encourage each other towards success.
